Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

Chapter 544 Talking about the bride price, all the daughters rebelled

"Jinyang, the bride price for marriage represents a woman's status."

"The more gifts, the higher the status."

"When your sister Changle got married, the sky-high dowry shocked the city of Chang'an."

"Everyone envies Changle because of the many betrothal gifts."

"Father wants more gifts not for himself, but for you."

Li Shimin was eloquent and thick-faced, and after a lot of sophistry, he described his greed as a little sizi's decency.

However, Xiao Si has grown up and is not easy to be deceived.

"Father, you are wrong."

"When it comes to getting married, the most important thing is that the two of you live happily."

"The betrothal gift is meant to be, why did the emperor say it was a betrothal gift of hundreds of millions."

"Besides, the so-called high-value dowry, if we ask for sky-high betrothal gifts, then ministers and common people will follow suit."

"Father, think about it. At that time, many men will not be able to marry wives and have children because they cannot give sky-high betrothal gifts."

"Then the population of our Tang Dynasty is not enough. Without the population, how can the country be strong?"

"Father, are you right?"

Xiao Si's reasoning was so thorough that even Su Yu felt it made sense.

Li Shimin shouted in his heart that his daughter is not easy to cheat when she grows up.

"Little persimmon has grown up, well said."

"Lao Li, you have to learn from your own daughter."

Su Yu nodded in praise of Xiao Si.

Li Shimin was speechless, and his heart was full of bitterness.

This daughter was completely abducted, and the dowry money was in vain.

"Jinyang, you can't say that."

"Father and mother worked so hard to raise you up, how much sweat did you put in."

"You were weak and sickly when you were a child, and we have broken our hearts."

Li Shimin is not reconciled, he wants to get back his capital.

The little si looked into Li Shimin's eyes, nodded seriously, and said: "I remember, I was very sick at the time, and then I went to Brother Su, and then I didn't leave, and then I ate at Sujiazhuang and lived there. In Sujiazhuang."

puff.
Li Shimin felt that he had been stabbed severely by Xiao Sizi.

This means that the meal money is all Su Yu's, and it has nothing to do with Li Shimin.

Li Shimin said he couldn't stand Xiao Si, so he turned his head and said to Su Yu, "My son-in-law, tell me, I gave you two daughters, and the gift money is less, how about you?"

"You are the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, are you willing to get married without showing off?"

"You want to marry in style, you need to show off."

"What counts as ostentation? Dowry gifts, the more ostentation."

Li Shimin tried his best to seduce him, thinking about asking for more gifts.

Su Yu smiled slightly and said, "Lao Li, I'm just shameless, and I won't give you any gifts."

Li Shimin's methods were too immature, and Su Yu couldn't be fooled at all.

Li Shimin was furious, and asked: "If you don't give the bride price, do you still want me to pay for the wedding?"

Su Yu laughed and said, "Thanks to my father-in-law's concern, it would be the best if I can do this."

Su Yu was too shameless, and Li Shimin was blown away.

With a cold snort, Li Shimin sat on the table with his sleeves flung.

Princess Wu Ji served tea to Li Shimin.

"The emperor drank some tea to calm down. Marrying a daughter is a great joy, so why say it so annoyed."

The queen smiled and persuaded.

Li Shimin pointed to Xiao Si and said, "You heard it just now, this daughter is raised for nothing."

"If you don't help me ask for more gifts, but also want me to pay you back, how can there be such a daughter in the world."

The queen smiled and said nothing, waiting for Li Shimin to finish his complaints.

I took a sip of tea and felt good.

"This tea looks like the one I drank at Tianming Pavilion in Yangzhou. It's strange."

Li Shimin muttered.

He had a feeling in his heart, as if Bai Suzhen from Tianming Pavilion was in Chang'an City.

Princess Changle didn't care, her mind was on the bride price issue.

"Father, I heard that the children of Chang'an City have been better than the bride price for many years."

"The sky-high betrothal gift is really not worth it, and the common people are comparing each other."

"Many old men can't get married, and women can't get married."

Princess Changle whispered.

Li Shimin did not speak.

What Changle and Xiao Sizi said made sense, Li Shimin just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to marry his daughter, and kill Su Yu severely.

Li Shimin thought in his heart: Anyway, the son-in-law is rich, so what's wrong with my father-in-law?

The queen smoothed things over and said: "Changle, there is no one who does not give a bride price when marrying a daughter. This is a courtesy."

"As for how much to give, the concubine thinks it's almost enough."

Li Shimin felt it was a pity that he didn't take the opportunity to kill Su Yu.

But, it's better than nothing.

"Yes, the betrothal gift must be given, just a few billion."

"Stinky boy, I will give you a discount on the jumping price, 2 million copper coins, nothing less."

"If you still want to negotiate the price, I won't marry you even if my little si becomes an old girl."

Li Shimin yelled loudly.

Xiao Si laughed softly and said, "Brother Su, this price is fine."

2 million copper coins is not too much, it just means something.

The debts recovered from the minister today amounted to more than 5 million copper coins, and Su Yu didn't feel bad at all.

"Okay, buy it now."

Su Yu agreed.

Li Shimin sighed: "It's a loss, it's a loss."

When it was time for dinner, Xue Ji came out and asked everyone what they wanted to eat.

If you don't get the sky-high price gift, then take it back.

"I want to eat potatoes and beef, crayfish, sweet and sour carp, spicy bullfrog, all of them."

Li Shimin said.

Xue Ji smiled and said: "The emperor ordered so much, can you finish it?"

Li Shimin snorted coldly: "I have a big appetite, don't I, my son-in-law."

Xue Ji just heard the conversation between Li Shimin and Su Yu asking for a bride price.

I know Li Shimin is angry.

"Make it all for him, make a big portion, and pack it up for him to take away if he can't finish it, don't say I'm stingy as a son-in-law."

Su Yu said.

Xue Ji smiled and went into the kitchen to arrange lunch.

After a while, the food was ready, and Li Shimin was the first to enter the dining room.

Picking up the chopsticks, Li Shimin ate the meat, wishing he could eat billions.

The queen kept saying to eat slowly so as not to overwhelm her stomach.

After a meal, Li Shimin lay on the chair with his big belly.

The meat was almost in his throat, and Li Shimin felt that he could spit it out in just a few words.

Su Yu sneered: "You eat like you are feeding ducks, you will be reincarnated from starvation."

Li Shimin raised his finger and pointed at Su Yu, speechless.

The mouth will literally spit it out.

Su Yu lay on the rocking chair, sleeping comfortably.

Sujiazhuang is the most comfortable place for salted fish.

After all, the other places are too simple to live in.

Li Shimin lay in the yard alone and didn't want to move when everyone went in for dinner.

It took half a day to digest it.

The Queen asked, "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Li Shimin waved his hand.

Su Yu said: "Old Li, it was okay once, you have to keep doing this, and be careful of stomach problems."

Li Shimin glared at Su Yu, and said, "It's not that you withheld my betrothal gift."

After digesting for a long time, Li Shimin was finally able to speak.

"Tell you something, you can give me an idea."

Li Shimin said.
